Questions from Nash
Can you cook in Coney Hall Recreation Ground?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
We’re having a ceremony at Keston Parish Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is typically elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Can you do our whole wedding menu?
Any part of the day, or all of it, from the drinks reception to the evening.
Can you bring crockery?
Yes, on request. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables can be added to your booking.
Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces frequently work.
Should we have more than one paella?
Two or three is usual: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will help you decide the split.
Is paella smart enough for a wedding?
It can be as relaxed or as polished as you like, depending on presentation and service.
Prices and what affects them
We will give you a clear, itemised quote. What affects it most:
- Guest numbers
- Your choice of paellas
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- What the venue already provides
- Where the event is
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- A photo of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send a clear, itemised quote and a suggested menu.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
How the day works
Watching it cook is half the fun. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook while your guests chat. In Nash, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, which means evening paella is generally served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.

Space, weather and the venue
We will agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
- An open-sided catering gazebo next to the marquee
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
As a London location, Nash is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
